A story came out that says children as young as 12 years old have been employed at a car assembly plant in Alabama. Not sure what all the fuss is? Capitalism is based on cheap labor, and all you have to pay kids is enough to get the latest iPhone, right? Child labor is allowed by our Constitution and was finally banned in the US by the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938. Maybe if we start with a Constitution that puts the well-being of the middle class ahead of the well-being of our corporate masters...? Think about it.
